Merry Christmas to all of you on the set. I sure have enjoyed it a whole bunch working with you on Pulp Fiction and to thank you from the bottom of my heart, I have something for each one of you.

Now gather round me and I'll hand them out. Say, do you want to try to guess what they are?Yes, George? Fruitcakes!? You must think I'm as evil and sadistic as the characters I play in my career as America's foremost quirky cameo actor! Any other guesses? No?I've brought you watches! Really nice watches! Quite similar in fact to the watch I give to the young boy in our little movie!So, friends, step right up andI'll bend over, reach behind me, and hand you your watch!What ... what seems to be the trouble? I can see you're speechless. I'm just gonna reach behind me, whip out each watch one at a time, and hand them to you!Are you all just being shy? Look, I've got 15 watches back here, one for each of you. I carefully packed them up, tucked them away safe and cozy, and trudged over here with them this morning. Oh, yes, Bill? Where are they made? I believe it is a factory in Maine. Yes, they did travel quite a long way down South to get here. Then they plopped right into my hands so I could give them to you.C'mon, everybody, these are for you from me. I'm just going to bend over, reach around back here, grab one .... OOOHHHH, I'm not as young as I was in Annie Hall .... and give this watch to our friend, the sound man, Grover!Hey, Grover, come back here! Everyone come back!! Come back!!!I'll be damned! I bring all these watches in for everyone, put them on a table behind me so they'll be a surprise, and nobody wants them!Oh well, time to deliver my special gift to Quentin Tarantino. I really want to surprise him so I've hidden my gift very well. Hey, Quentin, bet you'd never suspect that America's foremost quirky cameo actor would give you a baby grand piano!I better find him. This is starting to tickle.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~And in case you're not really clear what's going on above, here's Christopher Walken's bizarre turn as Captain Koons in Pulp Fiction.

I keep waiting for you to give Hanukkah presents to those comment on your blog. At your age, the gifts will probably be sundials or hourglasses. There's no telling where they've been. Don't ask me to stick my hand in there.

About Me

Perry Block has lived a life of which most others can only dream. Although we don't know who these "most others" might be, it's clear their dreams have to be about as exciting as being President of the Justin Bieber Fan Club at the Abe Vigoda Memorial Home for Very, Very Old Jews.
In his one action-packed lifetime, Perry has been a rugged, briny sea-faring guy; a hunky dude given to slamming his right fist into his left palm while exclaiming "caution be damned, innocent lives are at stake!"(although frankly he has always missed his left palm); and a world class professional yodeler known for a killer "YO-DEL" but a generally undistinguished "LAY-HE-HOO!" He has succeeded in virtually every sphere of human endeavor, but failed miserably in the rectangular and triangular ones.
In his private life, Perry spends most of his time fantasizing he has a private life. He is the proud father of Brian Block, age 29, and Brandon Block, who's 23. He regrets not having more children so he could have alliterated their names as well.
As he reaches those golden Nouveau Old years, Perry says that he has no regrets. How could he? He's forgotten them all.
